Sour Grapes

And the angel of the lord led me

Into the belly of the holy mother

A chamber black as pitch

But I felt no fear only comfort

For I was as a child

And she bade me

Peer through yonder portal

Which looked upon the heavens

And behold a mourning angel

She ascended slowly from far beyond the horizon

Her light like a heavenly finger pointing the way

And on yonder wall she traced for me a path

Which led me five directions eight winters to east

And behold

As my feet landed firmly

Upon the vital winter of the second score

There appeared before me a heavenly star

Hal le lu jah

A holy virgin the bringer of life and breath

And she spoke unto me saying

Fear not the movement of the heavens above or the earth below

For change is what we are my child

Righteous are those

Who look up and sway with the wind

Who look down and dance with the shifting of the soil

Who swim with the movement of the tides

Who seek the truth around them

And discover that we are

And have always been in paradise

The reflections of heaven on earth

Amen

And she spoke again saying

Know my child

That there is no devil seeking

To cause guilt in the hearts to men

No evil save blind faith ignorance

And the desire for the unprepared

To blame others for the devastation

Left in the wake of change

Change my child

Change is in the heavens

Change is on this earth

Change is all around us

And if we

Are reflections of the divine

We must roll with these changes

For we are these changes

Eyes wide open

We must look upon

The heavens as a mirror

Wide awake aware deeply breathing

And when the ship comes down my child

You will be there

A true and holy survivor

To inherit the kingdom of god

You will rise above the grumbles of the unprepared

To greet the new day

To drink from the sweet fruit of the vine

The water of life the blood of the risen Christ my child

Go now son

Tell them all

The ignorant the blind paw of dogma

Blinded by faith the doubters the nay Sayers

Tell them all child

They cannot see

The kingdom of god

They cannot see paradise

Unfold before them

They cannot drink

From the chalice

Which holds the blood of Christ

The water of life

Until they get right with Jesus

Until they get right with Jesus

It's always gonna be

Sour grapes with you boy

Until you get right with Jesus

Amen

It's always gonna be

Sour grapes with you boy

Until you get right with Jesus

It's always gonna be

Sour grapes with you boy

Until you get right with Jesus

It's always gonna be

Sour grapes with you boy

Until you get right with Jesus

It's always gonna be

Sour grapes with you boy

Until you get right with Jesus

It's always gonna be

Sour grapes with you boy

Until you get right with Jesus
